Altamira guitars are the finest quality Selmer copies produced in Asia. This company makes the Manouche Latcho Drom models for Dell'Arte. The instruments you see here are branded under their own name and are identical to the ones Dell'Arte imports. Dell'Arte upgrades the tailpiece, tuners, and bridge and does some setup work. The Altamira guitars have more basic hardware and bridge but these things can be upgraded by our tech Josh (see the options tab.) Also, the Altamiras have a more modern, ergonomic C shaped neck. The Manouche Latcho Drom guitars have a very large and uncomfortable U shaped neck.

DjangoBooks is the North American distributor for Altamira. Dealer inquiries welcome.

Altamira guitars are warrantied against manufacturer's defects for one year from the date of purchase.
